I think LFE is at least not unheard of, but anyway, that's not really the point here probably ;)

I of course prefer either LFE or Erlang, they are much simpler, Elixir has a bit too much fluff for my liking.

I've experimented with LFE, but I've generally found that if I want a Lisp, I'm better off with a more traditional Lisp. I also very much prefer using a Lisp-1 (like Scheme).

Joxa and CSCM are on my to-do list now (especially the latter, since it's supposedly a proper R7RS on BEAM) for that reason, but I haven't gotten around to giving them a serious go yet.

Hi Omri! No.

Snarly! Suspected as much.

Heh. So, I'm doing smart grid stuff, and looking to see just what tools the sector really, really needs.

For some things: Rust. For other things: BEAM/OTP

OOh. That does cover it. Where I need safety assurance: rust. Where I need resilience for crashes: BEAM. This does fill in the gaps.

There are other languages, just read the reference.
